Growth

Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.

I am seeking. I am striving. I am in it with all my heart.

Learning never exhausts the mind.

You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals.

Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas.

Surround yourself only with people who are going to lift you higher.

To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.

You must do the things you think you cannot do.

Humans have bodies, but few of us explore their full capacities.

Compare yourself to who you were yesterday, not to who someone else is today.

If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose.

It's okay to be a glowstick: Sometimes we have to break before we shine.

If you're so afraid of failure, then you will never succeed. You have to fail to succeed. You have to fail to be better.

I am searching for an intellectual challenge. I want to keep learning, keep improving.

The smart thing in the arts is to be other than yourself, because if you’re always trying to improve on your own qualities, you’re in danger of becoming limited.

I like flawed characters very much.

One of the great things about acting is the edge of not knowing for sure, and taking it off its pedestal as something that's masterful and perfect. You can always fail, so that's a window into being present.
